i’ve made 2 new OC’s: Astra and X.O, and i’d like any and all help with making an interesting story about them! this is what i have right now ⬇️

i would like to expand on:

  • they’re a two-man band (x.o is the music producer/guitarist and astra is the singer/vocals)
  • siblings

misc/funny/other:

  • astra likes cookies n cream ice cream, or just any ice cream—she has a sweet tooth!
  • x.o like seafood boil—savory typa guy

if you have anything to add in either category lmk!! i’m appreciative of all help 🫶💫

Now, I would say focus on their story mores, what make these characters different from other pop stors

Yea their likes/dislikes are fun, but that's not really the purpose of a character. That's more of their personality quirks. THe idea of characters is for us the audience to get a glimspe in who they are without being told through exposition of what they like to eat

#

Visual storytelling is the key here. like look up riot splash art and they convey clear understanding of what a character is and how the audience expects them to fight. Same for non combative characters

No promblem. LIke Sketches are fine. But try to consider doing a character illustration with the ideas I just gave above. this is how you can really make a character popl and not just be in the void aka no bg
